The company said the news will not result in any job losses, and comes at the same time as investment in services provided by remaining branches.

Affected staff will be given three months’ notice, with customers offered alternative options including pop-up facilities and video banking.

Stephanie Smith, Barclays Community Banking Director for South Wales, said: "In order to stay relevant and competitive to our customers, we will continue to evolve the shape and size of our branch network, as well as the improving and investing in the experience in-branch.

"The number of physical Barclays branches will reduce overall but our branch network and the colleagues who work in them remain a vital part of our offering.

"With customers visiting our branches less and less each year, we must constantly assess how and why our branches are used and make decisions based on that insight."

Barclays added that closures are based on a number of factors, including the availability of nearby services and the way facilities are used by customers.
